Pros: Coming from an old, now retired intel q6600 quad core this is a massive upgrade. Honestly its more than I even know what to do with and that's the fun part, I do know its a good streaming cpu and I have tested that out some. Makes for a great gaming cpu as well because the cores aren't maxed out like an i5, or R3 1200 or 1300. Now those are all good gaming cpus too, but you have a little more headroom with the r5 1600. I almost went with the R3 1200 but in the end decided to go with the R5 1600 and I'm so glad I did. I'm pretty certain I wont need to upgrade this cpu for at least 2 years, and when I do the AM4 socket will be supported until 2020, maybe even longer so that leaves options for a nice upgrade path if and when I want it. this is just a great cpu for the price, just do it you will not regret it!
Cons: None really
DOA

Pros: None
Cons: Yet ANOTHER board sent to me that's DEAD!!! I can't even put into words how angry I was to find out I received another board that's a dud!! This is the second B350 motherboard I have ordered from newegg that simply does not work, what in the world is going on?
Overall Review: Could I please have a AB350 AMD motherboard that works?
Powerful gpu

Pros: -It's better than a gtx 1050ti from which I upgraded(a lot better marginally) -Armor plate looks cool, and protects it -Easily handles 1440p gaming, maxed out settings 60+ frames per second (in most games ive played, recent and old)
Cons: Requires more power, but this is to be expected. Is quite large..make sure you have enough room in your case
Overall Review: If you are upgrading from a 1050ti 4gb or similiar performing card this is a huge performance jump.
Awesome gaming mouse! Especially for the price!

Pros: -Inexpensive, I think I paid like 19 bucks for this mouse... -All features are working properly -Breathes different colors (some may find it a con but I happen to like it) -Decent amount of weight -Fits comfortably into large hands
Cons: None! I see there are some naysayers in other reviews but I mean seriously... this mouse is less than 20 dollars, you're not going to find a better mouse in this price range...
Overall Review: I personally have not had any issues with this mouse and I highly recommend it for gaming on a budget!
So far so good!

Pros: -Faster than a standard hard drive and doesn't cost much. -1TB of storage
Cons: -None that I can think of really, it's not as fast as a true solid state drive but definitely faster than your standard drive so it's somewhere inbetween. Not really a con considering the price though.
Overall Review: I would definitely recommend this hard drive if you are on a budget but still want a fast hard drive with a decent amount of storage capacity. I've only been using it for 2 months so far, hopefully it will continue to work as it should.
Very decent headset

Pros: Pretty comfortable to wear. Deep rich bass as advertised, volume is sufficient. Mic quality is very good
Cons: I personally was hoping it would be able to reach just a touch higher volume than what it does, but its just a minor gripe of mine. these are very decent for the money
Overall Review: Definitely go for it
